About this listen

 It was a memorable afternoon with the Wests Tigers showing how far the team has come in the past 12 months. But, sadly, in 15 minutes, the Cowboys managed to wrestle the game away from us at a sold-out Leichhardt Oval.

On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel is joined by Nick, Zac, and Jordan to look back at the many highs and lows of Sunday afternoon's game. Yes, of course, Jordan contemplates whether he has put a curse on the club after so confidently tipping the boys to win three straight games last year.

Well, it's now the end of 2025, and that mini streak still hasn't happened. With only two games left in the 2025 season for the Wests Tigers, we will have to wait until next year! See what Jordan has to say for himself on this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.

Some other talking points from the 6-point loss to the Cowboys include:
  • Why do we tend to struggle in big event games?
  • How much of an impact was it losing Adam Doueihi to injury?
  • How the Cowboys showed up to play
  • Our continued struggle in the red zone with our attack
Some of the key moments from the game are also up for discussion, including the remarkable Wests Tigers try that was so akin to Pat Richards' Grand Final try twenty years earlier. There's a discussion about the continued impressive performance of Taylan May, the 'Rocks and Diamonds' that is Brent Naden, and concerns about our lack of bench strength as well.

As always, heaps of Wests Tigers Podcast Forum 'One Word' submissions feature as well, and we take a look at the big news that the club has secured tens of millions of dollars in funding for an upgrade of Campbelltown Stadium.

It's not a post-victory edition of the pod, but we hope you enjoy our take on an afternoon at Leichhardt that was oh so close to being a classic!
